Hi everyone! Just an update here really - I shot a test for my retro/mid century modern unisex fanzine Jitterbox yesterday.
I have already completed the women's editorial so yesterday was all about the men!
If you follow me on Twitter you will know I've been posting non-stop on my personal and work accounts looking for male models, photographers, barbers and reproduction clothing designers to step forward, as myself and the fashion stylist had a major disaster with the original photographer pulling out just two hours before we were due to shoot on Sunday.
Naturally, I was distressed, having spent two weeks of precious final deadline time working on Jitterbox and planning this photo-shoot with a top photographer, only to find the stack of cards topple at the last moment.
Although fashion looks and sounds glamorous with all these photo-shoots and good looking people - I assure you it can be very much the opposite when something goes wrong and it's out of your control.
Tight deadlines, no sleep & crashing on my sisters sofa for 5 days flat because of the cancellation and having to hang around in the city
until our shoot was completed..
I was very, very tired at this point.
So everything had turned bad - and then suddenly my working head went on again and I found a photographer, approached him professionally and it clicked back into place, and I was a happy editor once again!
We shot a with a great agency model who has a very bright future ahead of him, and the shoot was a success. I have just received all of the thumbnail shots now so I will be editing this magazine for the rest of the week.
Looking forward to sharing this project with you guys and also developing myself as a blogger in the next few upcoming months!
I will release all credits when the issue goes live! Check my instagram for behind the scenes!
Stay Foxy,
Sarah
I took this a few days ago before my new hair colour, but I forgot to post it - so I'll be posting a few from previous days and then i'll be back on track with on-the-day outfit posting <3

Hi everyone! It's sooo super sunny today. I had my hair done yesterday, I've decided to give it a rest from bleaching and although I'm not completely happy with the colour it is at the moment, a dark gold blonde, it's ok for now. I think I'll have a few highlights the next time I see my hairdresser just so it frames my face more. I was going for more of the Victoria's Secret's sort of gold blondes but it's ended up quite one-tone. I think I need more than one sitting. However it was about three different colours, bleached to death and big roots before so major kudos to my amazing hairdresser for sorting that out!!!!!
Here is my look for the day. It's lovely and sunny by the coast today so I'm squinting away here, but I'm really enjoying this blue faux leather skirt from Zara with my gingham bralet at the moment.
Hi everyone! Today myself and my family went to Toucan Wholefoods for lunch. I love this place for one because it's right by the seaside, and secondly I can order anything off the menu and enjoy it without the worry of being brought meat by accident, as it is fully vegetarian!
I may not have mentioned it before, but I have stuck to a vegetarian diet since I was 6 years old.
It was a conscious decision I made because I didn't really like meat in the first place and it wasn't for me.
To go to a café that has interesting and tasty recipes with 100 % natural ingredients was a real gem for me, and even meat eaters would enjoy the quaint atmosphere and delicious food.
I am used to going to restaurants that don't cater enough for vegetarian dietry requirements so it was a refreshing change!

Carrot, Beetroot, Cucumber & Celery juice.
My shake was slightly less sweet than my Mum's melon shake, but it still had enough natural sugars from the carrots for it to be sweet enough as an enjoyable daytime drink. I also found because of its' raw vegetable content it actually filled me up and I didn't want to eat as much as I would usually.
These juices are a great idea to get your 5 a day in one drink and also a cleanse for your body.
One of my favourite Blogger & Vloggers, Beauty Crush, tried the full fruit juice cleanse from FruJu and really enjoyed it, but she did also mention she did get quite hungry on just juice (as you can imagine).
I can certainly see why they are filling and satisfying juices as the texture is fairly thick, but it was nice to balance it with a salad.
I would love to try the full juice cleanse to see how it agreed with my body also!

Vegetable flan, (they have 3 different options of flan and all 3 were lovely! We all had a different one and this one was the mixed veg, there was also one with leeks and ricotta which I tried). It was served with a lovely side salad which had fresh beetroot, cabbage, carrots, celery, watercress, rocket leaves and various other plant-goodness.

Although I was full after this meal, it felt good to have no fried carbs on the side and I felt refreshed! I highly recommend this organic vegetarian café if you are visiting the South Coast!
Stay Foxy!

Hi everyone! Hope you are enjoying good weather. I just realised I always seem to be in my Sophia sandals, but I love them, and also half of my shoes are still in London. I collected (rescued) a couple of pairs from my sisters balcony in the week but there's only so much a suitcase can hold!
Been working hard on my vintage magazine Jitterbox this week, sorting out the menswear shoot, graphic layouts and had tutorials with my university teachers about the magazines direction and how I want to present it in my final show. I found out I go to Romania for an adventure holiday when my show is unfortunately, but my work will still be on display in London (probably East), and I shall leave details so if you wish to, you can go view it when it's up!
Here is my outfit of the day. We have had some beautiful sunshine at the South Coast today but the weather cracked earlier and my hair got a bit soggy and less quiff-like!
Diamond Boat Neck Top - Freddies of Pinewood
Skirt is H&M (Old)
Sophia Sandals - Rocket Originals
Bamboo Earrings - Bow & Crossbones
Stay Foxy!
